Deputy Railroad Commissioner, Ransom, of
Michigan, Explains the Relation of the
Lake to the Railroad Carrying Trade and
Makes a Suggestion.
WASHINGTON, May 1G-In response to
letter from Secretary Mosely of the In
ter-State Commerce Commission asking
for information as to the necessity for
granting certain railroads in the State of
Michigan relief from the operation of the
fourth section of the Interstate law, in
order that they may be able to meet water
competition at certain points, Deputy
Railroad Commissioner Ransom, of Michi-
gam writes:
Heretofore there has seemed to be but
little active competition between the rail
road companies and the vessel interests
during the navigation season. The latter
have 1ized the rates and the railroads
come to them if they obtained any of the
traffic. Whether there has been very
much in it besides the increased tonnage
to the credit of the general freight
agents is very doubtful. The inter State
traffic from water points in Michigan is
limited largely to forest products and salt
on the Lower Peninsula, and to forest and
mineral products in the Upper Wherever
these products can find shipping points by
water, the vessel rates will take the larger
portion of the business in ali cases where
the railroad companies are compelled to
maintain rates based upon the 'hauls'
clause of the Inter State act. IN
der these conditions the yes
sci rate will be just enough
lower than the rate by rail to prevent the
companies taking any portion of the traf-
fic, but still largely above what the rate
1N<,, ~, Al
at lake points and the railroad
companies placed in position to
compete for a share of the traffic
successfully. 1t is evident, think, that
the companies do not intend reducing
them to do a through business in
competition with water competition.
IF, therefore, you suspend the
operation of the long-haul rule at lake
points, can not see how such action
would do inside local points an injustice,
and it would certainly give the shippers
at lake competing points better
rate than they could secure were the
vessels given practical monopoly of
the trade by strict application of the
rule. In the general interest Of the peo-
/ pie, would say suspend the rule during
the season of navigation, and en-
force while navigation is closed.
Did the question only involve the
carriage of freights in transit through
our State from outside points, we should
not favor the suspension of the rule in fa
vor of the railroad companies, but in the
interest of our coastwise trade we think
the iron-clad application of the law should
be waived during the season of naviga

at his adopting the name of his patri-
monial estate and calling himself Bal
zac? Many other instances might be
quoted of men Of talent and eminence
being dissatisfied with the names that
were borne by their ancestors.
Some people, in their anxiety to COM
pensate their children for the vulgar or
ridiculous family names which they
have inherited couple with them what
they consider aristocratic, euphonius
C,H,istian names. Hence we have such
combinations as Gladys Beatrice Higgs,
Constance Aurelia Smith and Victor
Augustus Jones. One can sYmpathize
with the fact that many pleasing hours
of consultation and discussion arc
given to the young mother and her
husband in deciding what name will
sound mellifiuously and assort most
fittingly with the sterling and attract
i've qualities which are so susceptibly
packed up in the little cherub, their
frst-born.
The ancients had many superstitions
as to names, and even elevated the
study to science under the title Of
ononmantia. When the Romans raised
an army or numbered the citizens they
were always careful that the first name
taken should be an auspicious one.
More than one Emperor owed his ele-
vation simply to his name, and Caesar
in his expedition to Africa gave COM
mand to obscure Scipio because the
people believed that the Scipios were
invincible in Africa. Similar influence
weighed with the French ENJOYS who
went to negotiate a marriage between
one of the Spanish princesses and Louis
VIII. They rejected Urraca, the elder
and more beautiful princess, who was
intended for their royal master, and
preferred her sister because her name,
Blanche, had more musical sound.
The Spanish Ambassador to the

pointed wealthy citizen to receive

right royal way of dipping into it for
the sake of upholding the English name
